There is a baseline level of intellect and critical thinking required for a human to be disappointed. Trumpkins by and large don't meet the criteria.

listen, I know you are a slow liberal so I'll try to use small words.

ACA was passed after seven months of controversial bribes, tricks, and lies. It is a black eye on congress and always will be.

This is a first pass house vote that got pulled about one month in. To compare the two this early is silly. If we make it to midterms and nothing is done, I completely understand, but some on here are much too eager to declare some sort of morbid victory- especially the never trumpers who conveniently sway back and forth from support to condemnation.

Talk about a loose interpretation of the word embarrassed. HRC gets tossed into the back of a van like a side of beef and libs strut around blaming that balmy 70 degree NYC heat.

A few months later, republicans shelve a shitty bill and it's the apocolypse.

This is in light of an Obama presidency who achieved success in virtually every agenda initiative


Hardly any of which occurred after the Democrats lost their super majority in Congress in the 2010 mid-terms. Obamacare and Cash for Clunkers were passed when the Dems had a super majority and two of his Supreme Court nominees were approved when they had control of the Senate. His last Supreme Court nominee was never even put up for confirmation.

In Trump we have a President with the fewest allies in Congress since John Tyler stepped into office after William Henry Harrison's death in 1841.

None of Trump's hardcore train riders and those of us in the Establishment frick you crowd supported that Cuck Ryan and his sham of a bill. It didn't address the core problems with Barrycare.

I get this was Trump's first real attempt to placate the Establishment cucks and it didn't pass the muster, but that's a good thing.



Based on this, you are incapable of being objective. You can't be honest when it comes to politics. Most Democrats and Republicans can see the flaws and recognize the failures of their parties. You aren't in this group. People like you do nothing but damage the country.

Trump said he was completely behind this bill.

Or does that not matter now?


I think he was lying.

He was playing politics.


But all the Trump haters now call that lying. They've all of a sudden got a conscience.

You don't have to go back that far, think 1976- Trump's Carter.

Carter was to the right of a significant bloc of his party's Senators and Reps and it crippled his ability to get things done, similarly Trump is to the left of the Freedom Caucus and they'll hobble his agenda. You really think the Freedom Caucus wants to spend a trillion dollars on an Infrastructure Bill- even more moderate GOPpers balk at spending.

Trump is the Billionaire President of the United States who is married to a Super model. Do you really think he's embarrassed?

He'll regroup.

Thanks for the confirmation that Trump's authenticity is all bullshite and he's no different from the political class he despises, other than he's even less honest.

Trump failed on one of his biggest promises. He actually said day 1 repeal. What's more important is that this shows he not only had no grasp of the complexity of the law he wanted to repeal, nor the difficulty of what he proposed (better cheaper healthcare), but that he made these promises without even attempting to make a plan to achieve them both before and after election.

Failure to plan is planning to...

Funny how until Trumpcare went down in flames the talking point was "Obamacare was rushed through so fast no one even read it"

now its "Suck it Libs even the ACA took 7 months"
